Supreme court nixes state land recovery in Pierce County
The state supreme court ruled the state university cannot recover 315 acres on Chambers Creek sold in 1903 by the State Land Commissioner to Henry Bucey for a small sum. The decision upholds the land commission’s power, notes the sale was irregular but in good faith, and states the land is not recoverable by the state though worth about 200000 today.
